A C voltage V ( t ) = 20   sin ω t of frequency 50   Hz is applied to a parallel plate…

AC voltage V(t)=20 sinωt of frequency 50 Hz is applied to a parallel plate capacitor. The separation between the plates is 2 mm and the area is 1 m2. The amplitude of the oscillating displacement current for the applied AC voltage is Take ε0=8.85×10-12 F m-1
  1. 21.14 μA
  2. 83.37 μA
  3. 27.79 μA
  4. 55.58 μA

Solution

From the given information,

C=0 A d=ϵ0×12×10-3 F
 XC=1ωC=2×10-32×50π×0=2×10-325×4π0 Ω
 XC=2×10-325×9×109=1825×106 Ω
 i0=V0XC=20×2518×10-6 A=27.47 μA.

The value of amplitude of displacement current will be same as value of amplitude of conventional current.
Hence option 3.
